GEO
Be Found in AI-Generated Answers. Not Just Search Results.
Search behaviour is changing. More users are now turning to AI-powered tools - including Google's AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Bing Copilot, and other generative AI platforms - to find answers, compare services, and make purchasing decisions. Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) is the practice of ensuring your brand, content, and expertise are surfaced and cited within these AI-generated responses. At Prism Works Studio, we help your business stay visible as the search landscape evolves beyond the traditional ten blue links.
WHAT IT IS & HOW IT WORKS
What Is Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO)?
Generative Engine Optimisation – or GEO – is the emerging discipline of optimising your digital presence so that AI-powered search engines and large language models (LLMs) reference, cite, and recommend your brand when generating answers to user queries. As tools like Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and Perplexity become increasingly embedded in how people discover products and services, appearing in these outputs is becoming as commercially important as ranking on page one of traditional search results.
GEO differs from traditional SEO in that it focuses not only on keywords and backlinks but on the authority, structure, and trustworthiness of your content as a source that AI systems are willing to reference. This means producing authoritative, well-structured, factually accurate content that clearly demonstrates expertise – and ensuring it is technically accessible and contextually relevant to the questions your target audience is asking.
Our GEO service assesses how your brand currently appears (or fails to appear) in AI-generated answers, and develops a strategy to increase your presence, authority, and citation rate across the major generative AI platforms relevant to your market.

Traditional SEO focuses on ranking your website's pages in search engine results pages (SERPs). GEO focuses on ensuring your brand and content are cited and recommended within AI-generated answers produced by tools like Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and Perplexity. Both disciplines are complementary and increasingly important to a complete search strategy.
Our GEO service monitors and optimises your presence across the major AI platforms relevant to your market, including Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT (with Browse), Perplexity AI, Bing Copilot, and other emerging generative AI search tools. The platforms we prioritise will depend on where your target audience is most active.
If you have noticed declining organic traffic despite maintaining or improving keyword rankings, AI Overviews and generative search tools are likely absorbing a portion of the clicks that would previously have reached your website. A GEO audit will confirm the extent of the impact and identify the actions required to address it.
No - GEO is a complement to SEO, not a replacement. Strong traditional SEO foundations - quality content, technical health, and authoritative backlinks - remain essential and directly support GEO performance. We recommend an integrated approach that addresses both.
We track metrics including brand citation rate across AI platforms, AI Overview appearance frequency for target queries, share of voice in generative search outputs, and any corresponding changes in organic traffic and conversion rates. Monthly reports provide a clear picture of progress and commercial impact.
